Trevor Philips, "Isn't the simplest way to protect energy bills to draw our our own oil and gas resources in the north sea?" Ed Miliband, "We are using the North Sea, ensuring existing oil and gas fields can be used for their lifetime" "New drilling will not take a penny off people's bills" "Some people want to pretend that if only we drilled more prices would go down" Ed Miliband you wasted the opportunity to explain why prices wouldn't go down, do that next time please

“Many people think that if we get oil and gas from the North Sea then that’s going to get our own [energy] prices down but we know that’s not the case.” Caroline Lucas on Good Morning Britain with a clear message to Labour: New oil and gas is not the answer.

Zia Yusuf, "You claim that Reform UK's Richard Tice is going to make energy bills more expensive by drilling in the north sea, how?" Caroline Lucas, "Oil and gas are far more expensive than renewable energy" Zia Yusuf, "How would drilling in the north sea, increasing the supply of something increase it's costs?" 🤦‍♂️ North Sea oil and gas extraction is expensive compared with renewables like wind and solar, so even if you produce more, the energy from these sources will still cost more per unit than renewable energy

Labour just voted to shut down our North Sea oil & gas industry costing thousands of jobs. This cannot go on. The Conservatives have a plan to cut bills, support industry, protect jobs, and make Britain energy secure. Our Get Britain Drilling bill would deliver exactly that.

Will Labour break their manifesto pledge to ‘just stop oil’ - I got into that with Times Radio yesterday and slew the commonly argued dragons of the pro oil lobby. New drilling can't lower our energy bills or give us energy security, it won't last very long anyway and there’s no tax gain for the economy (relatively new claim from Rachael Reeve this week)…:). What is it good for? Only for companies that drill. The only way to bring bills down is to ‘break the link’.

A total car crash interview for Labour. Labour voted to block new drilling in the North Sea, which would allow us to drill for British oil. At the same time, Labour are now happy to fund Putin’s war by paying for Russian oil. This is a disgrace. #LabourOut #PMQs

DeSantis with a #GOPDebate lie "Finally, we need to lower gas prices. We need to open up all energy production." Fact Check: Gas prices are high because the oil is owned by the oil companies. Drilling more doesn't lower gas prices. It increases Big Oil profits.

We can lower energy prices by drilling more North Sea oil and gas. We can use it domestically, rather than selling it on the international market. Both Votes ➡️ Reform
